FAQ - What does a 29 error code mean?

A 29 error code indicates a neutralizer drainage failure.  The neutralizer is designed to drain condensate away from the heater. If the neutralizer and/or drain becomes blocked up, the unit will flash the 29 error code to prevent the burner from being flooded.


Common issues related to the 29 error code include:

1) Blockage in the condensate drain line
2) Incorrect condensate line piping (e.g. upward sloping of drain line, trapped drain line, incorrect size piping)
